00:00But, Kevin, let's call it two weeks ago before the series even started.
00:03James Harden, oh, real happy in Cleveland.
00:05And Evan Sider with a tweet this morning that goes,
00:07hey, we're hearing from the camp for James Harden.
00:09He doesn't want a multi-year deal with Cleveland.
00:11He just wants to go back to Houston at this point, man.
00:14It's just crazy.
00:15Like, the highest payroll in the NBA is not the New York Knicks
00:19who just played the Cleveland Cavaliers.
00:20It's the Cavaliers.
00:22What do we talk about with James Harden now?
00:23Hey, not my fault.
00:25That's never James' fault.
00:26Always loves to bounce.
00:27And also, what the heck does Houston want with the guy again?
00:30Yeah, well, I mean, Houston could probably use him.
00:34Again, as long as we are being realistic.
00:38I feel like I've talked about this all playoffs.
00:40Like, let's not pretend.
00:41James Harden, just because we were wondering,
00:46hey, can LeBron go on a deep run at 37 or Steph Curry or Kevin Wright,
00:50that's not James Harden.
00:51He has passed his prime.
00:52He has a high regular season floor.
00:54He is not in their class, right?
00:57LeBron is LeBron.
00:58Forget that.
01:00Steph Curry is a top, at worst, 15 player in league's history, right?
01:04Durant is a top, at worst, 20 player in league history.
01:08Harden is not that.
01:09So, Harden going to Houston and being a part of the team,
01:14again, it's kind of what he was supposed to do in Cleveland.
01:16And then you look around, and you're like, this is all pathetic.
01:20It includes Harden, right?
01:21But there's also guys that are supposed to be in their prime who are supposed to make things easier and
01:27what have you.
01:29I'm just interested if Cleveland comes.
01:32James, they keep trying to play this game.
01:34We're like, we don't need LeBron.
01:35Brother, let me tell you what you need.
01:38LeBron James.
01:40You needed him last year.
01:41You need him again.
01:43That's what the Cleveland Cavaliers need.
01:45Once again, their only saving grace is that LeBron was born in Akron,
01:50and he might come back and save the Cavs one final time.
